Project Description

Help ensure the HPCC Systems marketing presence and brand is updated to reflect the new cloud-native platform capabilities. Find out more about the HPCC Systems Summer Internship Program.

HPCC Systems will be undergoing a brand refresh and a website upgrade. We will want to ensure that our marketing presence and brand is updated in our collateral, including updating our brochures, white papers and case studies. 

Our online presence will also need a refresh, including YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. This will involve conducting a competitive analysis of top online big data tools social channels and developing a plan to update, tag, and organize our online content.

  • Marketing competitive analysis of top open source platforms, including HPCC Systems 

  • Reviewing and updating branding and user personas documents based on interviews with appropriate resources 

  • Reviewing and updating collateral assets according to branding and messaging updates
